The first third part of the speech is valuable. The rest is more rhetoric by Obama. Remember this is the politician who condemned Bush and the U.S. presence in Iraq…
The part of the speech where he defends the right of our country to defend itself is like a speech given by George Bush and I do not have any problem with that. I thought it was a correct approach but he had to apeace his left wing base by calling our interrogations “torture”. It is not torture a method used by our own army as part of training. He cannot help himself, he had to bash the Bush administration. The rest of his speech was just a self serving speech.

Yes, Bush was good at war speeches, if not much at anything else.
Lenient moderators?!? that would be an improvement from the Huffington Post.
